Dove Evolution Film: What Advertisers Don't Want You To See

I don’t think I’ve introduced you to Stephanie Quilao of Back in Skinny Jeans, but she has a great blog that addresses issues on self-esteem and the standards of beauty that consume the beauty and fashion industries today.

Stephanie blogged about the Dove video that shows a model going through all the “primping” for a photo shoot. To top it off, the actual picture gets even more distorted through Photoshop, so in essence there is no “real” model - just some picture that is altered and spray painted to fit some company’s view of what is beautiful.
